Tiie Canadian S tesinan, Eowmanvlle, May 22, 19681 f SPORTropiCç By Frank Mohun 623-7234 *TRAIGHT DOWN THE 'MIDDLE! SThe greatest ambition o! every golfer la te be able te hlay it every drive straight down tht middle. This bas1 !Blways been ont of this duffers major problems. se although fe bellevlng, we were quick to accept an off er to spray some * ook and sice preventitive on some o! our clubs. ftApparently a silicone developed ln the United States, ;4orked se well, that At was quickly barred from tournament: *Use. We understand that it Is stilI for sale south o! tht ý.order, but has not been made available ln Canada. IMe Lomne Gow o! Hollingshead secured some o! this silicone d d enxd It into a chemical formula, which he-asked usi andIxur usual golfing partner, Bob Leyden to try, By golly- - the thing worked. Now don't get the Idea iat It is like an invisible shield whlc«h wiil automatically ~un a wild slIce or hook back t0 the fairway. But we bath Zit shots that stayed st ralght, which almost certalnly would ,-!ave faded or hooked. -ý Now you might say that the preventative gave us added 'Eonfidence that resulted in straighter shots, but still thet act -"emains - It %vas barred by tht PGA - and our drives did go straight down tht fairway! While the verdict is stili not officia, Bob and I have asked Lorne te mix us a gallon of tht stuif. tt t t t INTERMEDIATE BASEBALL REVIVED It was a long time dead (and buried), with no hope of ever coming back - but flnally Intermediate baseball was revIved ln time to participate in this summer's sehedule. Fred "Buck" Cowle was the "chief surgeon", but new * blood Injected by a group of interested players made the task possible. Certainly the support of the Rotary Club, who are eonstructing the playing site and the sponsorship cf Bow- fiaànviile's sports-minded merchants were ocher major factors * in the effort to revive Intermediate 'bail. Recreati on Director Bud Fanning, and his departmnent are right in the battie to get the team ln action, along with former hard-working Intermediate executive, Murray Tighe.ý Hero of Bowmnanville's Ontario championship victory in Listo- weýl, some dozen years ago - Clint Ferguson, will be the playing manager. Some of the players, who have been signed are : catchers Larry Piper and Jack Locke; pitcherg Ralph Kennedy, a 44ghly regarded hurler frorn Kendall, Gary Akey, Jini Moor- Frait, Wray Rendeli and possly veteran left-hander, George 11Generai" Jones; along with infielders and outfieiders Ray Çryombie, Bob Marjerrison, Vince Vanstone, George Sains- bury, Grant Wright. Steve Burns, Larry Perris, Jim Coyle Jr., John Fowler, Alex Wiseman and Terry Baker. With the ability contalned in this aggregation, it is now 4lmost a certainty that the Intermediates wili make a corn- lfete return to their form of years gone by. Of course the *iaI decision rests with the fans. Now we have a bail club - ibut to survive. the players need spectator support. .~Although the schedule won't be released until a later '*Ète, probably ail home gaines will be piayed on either ,@turday or Sunday afternoons at Rotary Park. Bowmanville will be active in two leagues - the Lake- miiore Senior and Leaside Junior. The locals will be the lone jýptermediate "A" entry, and will advance Into that division eayoff s. SThree senior clubs will provide opposition from King. dipn, Bellevile and Peterborough, wîth Oshawa juniors com- 1; ting thefIve teain Lakeshore circuit. IPIt Is expected that each Leasîdp Junior team will inake oeÔ,r two ippearances at Rlotary Park. The locals will make their flrst 1968 appearance this *&nday nlght under the lights in Peterborough.
